Although I am specialising in the problems with the Bi-xenon lights there is a wider spectrum.
This thread was from mattb
I have been driving my Vrs for a week now and on two occasions I have been led to believe that some other road users are not big fans of the DRL's.The first occasion I followed a fabia driver onto the A3 and he decided to put on his rear fog light on a bright sunny day.The second time was slightly more dramatic with an on coming driver deciding to put his headlights on full beam and honking his horn.Now I guess that they think that I am running with my front fogs on.Anyone else suffered similar experiences?
Epilogue
I wonder if mattb has considered that the brightness of the Daytime running lights are distracting to other drivers. Television is always letting us know about the inclusion of flash photography. On the odd occasion that I get to drive daytime I find the lights to be too bright and distracting. If my xenon campaign keeps making inroads I will certainly consider a survey on this brightness as the Manufacturers seem to have set the brightness a bit too high if drivers like mattb is getting flashed and honked.
It is my opinion that a far stricter MOT is needed for the Bi-xenon headlamp. Why do the Manufacturers and Government ignore us? It would be appreciated if you vote to change the current regulation with the link below. Thanks
Petition to: revise the RVLR 1989 regulation
If you live in the USA and many other places around the World and have the more sensitive eyes that find Daytime Running Lights distract making added dangers for you go to the DaDRL and vote:-
